[Bootanimation][Updated] Small, simple, smooth, wp7 style android HD2 bootanimation

spalm · May 1, 2011

Hi everyone

I have the European version of HD2. I use on it android system without ext partition for a fast response (for example: no delay when waking up) - I use only app2sd. Before flashing a rom, I remove from them all useless programs (unused by me) to get more space.

The bootanimation is big too. I don't want removed it completely. To get more space, I created my own animation, which is much smaller. Animation is inspired by the wp7 bootanimation, and has another advantage: Because that the frames are small, the first loop is played without delay when system loading frames (almost without delay).
I would like to share it with you - maybe someone will like it.

bootanimation

I prepared few color variants. Thanks Drew99 for the idea. The green HTC with cyan dots is best for me

bootanimation_green-white

bootanimation_green-green

bootanimation_green-cyan

bootanimation_green-red

And few new versions. Only htc logo

bootanimation_white-htc-white

bootanimation_white-htc-green

bootanimation_green-htc-cyan

I am open to any new suggestions and ideas

How to install with root explorer: (Based on TheSkepticalGuy's instructions http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12880922&postcount=1)
1. Clear the file name - rename the file from a bootanimation_something.zip to bootanimation.zip
2. Copy bootanimation.zip to your SD Card
3. Move it to /system/media/ or /data/local/ or in Desire/Sense base phones to /system/customize/resource/ and replace existing one using root explorer.
4. Reboot and Enjoy

All files tested on my phone

(Sorry if I messed something in this beautiful language - for my bad english

To me, this animation is almost perfect - when I start phone it looks clean and professional

I spent some time doing it. Nice to see that someone is interested

Later wants to make small changes in animation of moving points. Maybe I make change the inscription to Android. For me the priority is size.
Maybe someone has some suggestions.

Hi there!

Thanks for the boot animation! I like it!

I was just wondering, before it got into your animation, it shows a white screen with green HTC words on it, subsequently followed by black screen with the words HTC, is there any way to remove it?

I think this is a problem with the bootscreen (only htc on black or white screen) before bootanimation. Or with the transition between the bootscreen and bootanimation. I don't think this comes from the animation. I just made the animation, not bootscreen before.
Do you have this problem with a different animation?

Great idea! Already done.

With green HTC looks great!

I prepared several color versions. Put it in a moment

Thanks for clarifications!

I'm sorry that I could not help

Did you find a solution?
Do you have this problem with other bootanimations?

dkjh · May 5, 2011

I'm very sure it has nothing to do with your animation, your animation is good! I think it comes with the HD 2 startup!

Gonna try the Cyan animation now. At least the boot animations of WP7 are quite nice!

Nice! I like this logo. I just wonder where to put the flying points. On logos reflection? Or under the reflection? What color? White?
I'll do it tomorrow or the next day. Maybe I'll do a few versions

Great Job! The bootanimation is light weight and it seems to boot faster into the ROM. The color distortion before entering bootanimation is the hd2 thing not the bootanimation. After rename it to bootanimation.zip you do not need to change permission using rootexplorer. At first load will take a little time to load, on second reboot the bootanimation is settled and everything went smoothly.

P.S. At first, I was moving the old bootanimation.zip to another SD folder but it disappear on me. I put it in SD but it said not enough space when i got over 2Gb in there and it just disappear. I couldn't find it anymore. Lol.

You can make green progress bar under the logo (like in Win7 for example

)
